    Hold the Mayo? Evaluating Patriots coaching.

    I think the sense of control came from the fact that the Pats had possession for 37:20. The Pats have had 26 games since 2002 where they had that much TOP, and their record in those games was 26-0 before yesterday. The cover 0 TD + the sack fumble into TD both were extremely short, extremely...

    Hold the Mayo? Evaluating Patriots coaching.

    In game decision making in the context of a developmental season with a young team and a new coach is very different from the context of contending. It's not hard to read a win probability chat or hire someone to do it for you. I don't believe Mayo making conservative decisions now means that's...

    Hold the Mayo? Evaluating Patriots coaching.

    It's hard for me to square the results of this season thus far with the rancor towards the coaching in this thread. This is a squad that came into the season with bottom 5 talent and has had below average injury luck in a few key areas to make matters worse. If you asked me what my optimistic...

    Week 11: Ram the Rules

    Yup. In stride, right as Pop cleared the zone. The throw was made to the flat, across his body, with a free rusher about to clock him. That’s an elite play in every way - arm talent, read, and physical courage.

    11/6 vs. Golden State

    Man there have been long stretches where White looks like a legit superstar.

    11/6 vs. Golden State

    I mean, he's a 33% 3P shooter, only taking 1-2 a game. Doesn't seem like a bad plan to sag off him. Sometimes you hit snake eyes.

    11/6 vs. Golden State

    The looks are mostly open but not much in rhythm. The aggressive trapping is disrupting the flow for sure.

    Week 9: The draft pick is in mortal peril

    The team is just inexperienced, injured, and not very talented. It's fun to watch for the flashes of what can be. But if you're expecting better results than this you're setting yourself up for disappointment. I had fun watching that game.

    Game 5, October 30 at Indiana

    Queta is a monster against that front court. So active and long.

    Man Hali is a huge negative on D.

    Game 4, October 28 vs. Milwuakee

    Dame gets a real, real nice whistle

    Game 4, October 28 vs. Milwuakee

    I thought they weren't calling these anymore? Dame somehow baiting three of them in one game is gross.

    2024 Celtics Preseason Gamethread

    For the second night in a row, I have to keep repeating to myself "it's just preseason, it's just preseason"

    Week 4: Pats (+10) at SF

    I think this is the only way to watch this team this year. At least without stroking out.

    Week 4: Pats (+10) at SF

    Man this game thread started off toxic, where does it go from there? Isn't this roughly what we expected from this game on the calendar?

    Seahawks/Patriots 2024 Game 2

    I mean, Geno isn't bad these days. Seahawks might be a playoff team and the Pats played them as close as you can without winning. Not a terrible showing. And an entertaining game, which is all I'm rooting for this year.

    Seahawks/Patriots 2024 Game 2

    We will be glad for this result in April. It's a bummer right now.
